FIRST IMPRESSIONS: MAKEUP GEEK

So right now I should really be doing my final touches to my University work, which has a deadline for next week, BUT my Makeup Geek order came and I got very excited. Makeup Geek eyeshadow's have been talked about for ages, so naturally I was dying to get my hands on them and see what all the fuss was about. I had been umm-ing and ahh-ing for months at what shades to get. But when Beauty Bay added them to their site I just had to purchase them.

AMBIENT STROBE LIGHTING POWDERS

So these are my first make up purchases of 2016!!! I know, I went a whole month without buying make up... GO ME! But these were a must have. Ever since I saw on the Hourglass Instagram about these babies, I just knew I HAD to have them. I have a highlight addiction that must be fed.

VALENTINES DAY GLAM

This post is a make up look I've been wearing a lot recently inspired by Valentine's Day. Wether you're out with the girls or you're lucky enough to have a date, I think that this look is perfect for the 14th of February or any other day you fancy rocking some pink make up.

CONTOUR 101

These are a few of my favourite high(er) end matte bronzers that I use for creating a contour. I find that my matte products work better for contouring as theres no reflects of glitter or shimmer to catch the light within them. Meaning that they do work to create shadow and make those parts of your face really sink in.

CURRENTLY OBSESSED

These are a few items that I've currently been obsessed with. Want a glowing radiant, pink and rose gold look? Well I think that this blog post is right up your street. I've included recent loves and by chance they all happen to have that rose gold vibe. However, I haven't included a foundation or mascara within this post as I feel like these items work differently on all people. What works for me, might not work for you, right? But I have been loving MAC Face and Body foundation to go along with this look as it creates a lovely dewy glow. Anyway, I hope you enjoy this little one.

TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE

So this is just an informative blog post based on a recent experience. I recently decided to invest in a Burberry scarf. We already owned a real one bought from the Burberry site so I decided to gamble on eBay (being a student and all that) being that I could compare it to the real one for legitimacy. 

LIP EDIT

Hey ya'll! Just a little lip edit I put together combining my fav lip colours all into one post. This is mainly on pink and nude tones (as you can probably tell from the above image), as this is what I tend to own the most of and get the most wear out of. I think in 2016 I want to branch out and try more weird and wonderful shades of lippy, however I've put myself on a spending ban this month in hopes of actually saving some money! Remember that post I wrote "Need VS Want" yeah that never happened that month. So I'm starting again! New year, new me and all that.
